One problem with this is that you have to know where the JRE for 1.5 was installed. There is nothing that guarantees that the install path is the default. You might try to get the version information from the binary that is running if the OS version supports it. It might be more appropriate to try to load a required class and report the error when you encounter it.

I probably should have provided a little more detail on what is needed. Tomcat is being installed with JAVA_HOME pointed toward a 1.4 version of java. Later, JAVA 1.5 is installed and JAVA_HOME updated, but the Tomcat service is still using 1.4 (verified by running tomcat5w.exe and clicking on the Java tab). This value either needs to be updated or the Tomcat service uninstalled and reinstalled with the new JAVA_HOME. Sometimes this doesn't happen causing issues with our application, so I'd like to write a program that detects when this situation occurs (JAVA_HOME set to 1.5, Tomcat using 1.4). Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Programmatically-Determine-JVM-Version-used-by-Tomcat- tf3884522.html#a11015926 Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
